Kiss Me, I’m Irish! Fondant Cupcake Tutorial

Do you and your fam­i­ly cel­e­brate St. Patrick­’s Day? We don’t usu­al­ly do any­thing too big, but we def­i­nite­ly wear the oblig­a­tory green to avoid get­ting pinched and observe the fun hol­i­day with some sweet treats! We, of course, must start out the day with some Lucky Charms cere­al, whose marsh­mal­low sym­bols always makes me think of the var­i­ous super­sti­tions that are asso­ci­at­ed with bring­ing upon for­tune. On St. Pad­dy’s Day, those who are unable to phys­i­cal­ly kiss the icon­ic Blar­ney Stone can sub­sti­tute the act by find­ing the next best thing: an Irish per­son! The con­tex­tu­al say­ing Kiss Me, I’m Irish is what inspired me to make these sham­rock fon­dant top­pers with a sug­ary smooch!

If you’re look­ing for a sweet fig­ure to com­ple­ment your sham­rocks, check out this cute lit­tle Lucky Lep­rechaun fon­dant top­per pop­ping out of a pot of gold I made last year!

And when speak­ing of pots of gold, we can’t for­get the req­ui­site rain­bow, which I incor­po­rat­ed into this Over the Rain­bow design from my book Sweet & Unique Cup­cake Top­pers!

Check out the Kiss Me, I’m Irish fon­dant tuto­r­i­al on the Craft­sy blog and have fun spread­ing the luck of the Irish with all these fun and for­tu­nate cup­cake top­pers this St. Patrick­’s Day!
